2. CRYPTOCURRENCY :
A cryptocurrency is a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange that uses strong
cryptography to secure financial transactions, control the creation of additional units, and
verify the transfer of assets.
Bitcoin, first released as open-source software in 2009, is generally considered the first
decentralized cryptocurrency.
In 1983, the American cryptographer David Chaum conceived an anonymous cryptographic
electronic money called ecash. Later, in 1995, he implemented it through Digicash, an early
form of cryptographic electronic payments which required user software in order to withdraw
notes from a bank and designate specific encrypted keys before it can be sent to a recipient.
This allowed the digital currency to be untraceable by the issuing bank, the government, or any
third party.
